What to say, What to say?
First some updating:
-My movie was a complete success, even though I thought it was, and still think it is a train reck. I won best cinematography and one of my professors liked it so much that he is taking it to NYC to premier at film festivals in the village. He is also premiering it at Late Night Series at MCCC and is trying to get me a scholorship to NYU. I am so happy, but first I must fix my movie, it still needs alot of work, but it really made me believe that I can make it in this business. Movies are all I want to do so it feels good to be recoganized for my work.
-One of my main actors in the movie and good friend, Steve Recine, is now a Hollywood actor. He just landed a staring role in a Hollywood production with Steve Carrell (40 Year Old Virgin, Anchorman) Not only am I proud of him, I am accided that we can help each other out in the future. He is very talented, and I would love to work with him again.
-I may be going to Florida to further my career at Full Sail University in Winter Park, FL. (Right outside of Orlando) One of the best film schools in the country. Now I just have to decide between them and NYU.
So yeah things are looking up in my career, and my personal life has been less stressful to say the least. No drama, no fights, or at least no major ones. Best of all no heartach. Just chill lately, hopefully it stays this way because last summer was the complete opposite. But I think I've grown as a person from then to now. I went through some horrible times in the fall and then some more horrible times in Feburary, but since then things have been looking up. I think those experiences were nessisary, and they may have left me scared, but all the more wiser. It tought me to value friendship, but also the value of looking out for yourself. It made my morals alot more well defined, and I have stuck by those morals ever since then, even if it is to the dismay of some, it is the way I want to live, anyway enough of my ranting, or thoughtfull thinking.
Hopefully we all can hang out soon. I know I would like that.
Peace,
Patrick
